Within a period of 24 hours, every field of the National privileged class — from politics to punditry, from activism to education — exposed their absolute disdain for self- government.
The power-first reveal first exploded on an Atlanta stage when the nation was able to witness our commander-in-chief verify through his cognitively challenged performance that he is not leading our nation and that a vote for Joe Biden will be counted for some unknown another when it occurs in real time.
Beyond whether they can influence the American people enough to keep power, Joe Biden’s supporters are uninterested in any way in the supposedly” saving democracy” debate.  ,
The evidence of President Biden’s serious cognitive decline was stifled for years, and questions raised were ignored. People pulling the strings started using a” cheap fake” narrative to portray the visual evidence as constructed even as mounting evidence of his current incompetence.
For those Americans still relying on the propaganda press for their news, Thursday’s debate hit hard. Within minutes, Joe Biden’s incapacity was on full display for America … and her enemies. The president’s impairment was so obvious that even his most vocal supporters finally acknowledged Biden’s unfitness for office.
Yet those closest to the president — his cabinet, advisers, campaign staff, and Democrat- trusted members of the press — knew this reality for years. They were content to keep quiet so long as they could hide the truth from Americans: that they, not the commander- in- chief elected by voters, would run the country.
Pray tell, how is that defending “democracy”?  , We do n’t even know who the” they” are to demand accountability.
Friday provided a hint, however, with former President Barack Obama publicly defending his former vice president, by framing Joe Biden’s senility as merely a “bad debate”. The Clintons pledged their support for the current president on the same issue. Following Thursday’s fiasco, key cabinet members, including Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, also expressed their support for Biden, telling Fox News Digital they were satisfied with their recent assertions that the president should be in charge of his institutions.
The attorney general’s refusal to provide the House the audio tape of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s interview of Joe Biden led the special counsel to the verdict that no charges should be brought against the president because he would “likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as he did, as he did, as he did, as he did, as he did, as he did, as he did, as he did, as he did, as he
Yet those who are rushing to reinvigorate Joe Biden’s campaign are aware that the country is now aware that the president is not compos mentis. Thus, every phony defense of Biden’s dead-man-walking debate performance further justified a vote for the Democrat by claiming at least this president is a good and trustworthy man.  ,
” But this election is still a choice between a person who has fought for common people his entire life and a person who only cares about himself. Obama pontificated on X in contrast to someone who tells the truth, knows right from wrong, and will tell it to the American people straight for his own gain.  ,
Biden’s handlers fed similar prose to the president’s teleprompter on Friday, when he appeared at a North Carolina campaign rally. ” I do n’t walk as easy as I used to. I do n’t speak as fluently as I did when I used to. I do n’t debate as frequently as I once did. But I know what I do know: I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong”, the president told supporters distraught by his debate performance.
The portrayal of Biden as Thursday night’s truth teller is laughable. Between his unoccupied stares, the Democrat dropped whoppers left and right. From his falsehood that the Border Patrol union supported him, something that the union itself on X fact-checked in real time by the union itself, to his fabrications about military deaths and inflation, to his continued claim that Trump called Nazis very fine people, comparing him to the president who is of sound mind.
They do n’t care, though. Since Thursday’s debate, Biden and everyone else who has come out in his defense have demonstrated that the president ca n’t govern and that the franchise of confirmed voters has no purpose. They are aware that casting a ballot for Joe Biden is not a vote for the politician who is currently in charge of the nation.
The legacy media had a mistake on Thursday night and started running the “replace Biden on the ticket” story before Obama and his cadre intervened. And that schizophrenic messaging could be even worse for Biden’s reelection than the president’s dementia-inflicted performance at the opening debate.
